Guest guest Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 Here is a fine British doctor who went against the establishment. Her website is quite good on diet - paleo - is one of few who knows the dangers of the typical western diet, sugars and carbs, and stood up against the General Medical Council. She is losing her license and ordered to REMOVE her website. Quote From Stopthetyroidmadness website: "Today, it has been announced by the GMC (General Medical Council) of the UK that Dr. Myhill is now straitjacketed. She is forbidden to prescribe medications, is bound by other medical practice restrictions (see the details on the Support Dr. Myhill Facebook page), and most egregiously, has been ordered to remove her website (which you will not see two weeks after I have posted this)... Why remove her website? Because by daring to educate the public, especially if that education goes against “standard medical practice”, it is deemed “harmful”. In other words, YOU as a patient are not allowed to discover, or are too “vulnerable to get it, that there just might be a TOTALLY different story to the medical practice you are subjected to." I went there and found the below on iodine, so have quoted at length; http://www.drmyhill.co.uk/wiki/Iodine The benefits of micronutrients in modern medicine have been hugely dumbed down. The Government recommended daily amounts (RDAs) of micronutrients are the lowest levels required in order to prevent obvious pathology. These amounts do not reflect the optimum amount of micronutrient for optimum health. The two amounts (i.e. the RDA and the optimum amount) for individual micronutrients may be very different and this is well illustrated by iodine. It is now assumed that iodine is only necessary for the production of thyroid hormones, but actually breast tissue requires just as much and deficiency results in fibrocystic disease of the breast and in breast cancer. It is notable that countries with the highest iodine intake have the lowest risk of breast cancer. Coindet in 1820 used 250mg a day of iodine in order to treat goitre with great success. The French physician Lugol in 1829 used 37.5mg per day for the treatment of infectious disease, again with good results. Indeed, he developed Lugol's iodine, which was a mixture of 5% iodine with 10% potassium iodide which greatly enhanced the absorption of iodine. British physicians then used between 20 and 40mg daily to treat both hyper and hypothyroidism, with some patients requiring 90mg daily. This resulted in a 90% success rate for treatment. It became recognised that there was a pandemic of iodine deficiency. As a result of this, iodised table salt was introduced generally and the benefits of iodine supplementation were forgotten. However, iodine competes with the other halogens (such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine) for absorption and adding iodine to table salt would have severely impaired its absorption as it lost out to chlorine in the salt. The situation has been made worse in recent years because many people are subjected to high levels of fluoride because of their water supply or because of dental treatments, bromine was routinely used in bread making and also as a fire retardant. Thus the high levels of chlorine, fluorine and bromine in our diet and the environment mean that we are all at great risk of iodine deficiency. Furthermore, the recommended daily amount of iodine is 150 μg - that is to say a thousand fold less than the sort of doses that were used in the 19th Century... Work done by Professor Guy Abraham (whose work I have been following for many years now and who I highly respect) has lit up interesting new way of using iodine as a therapeutic intervention. Indeed he quotes from the Nobel Laureate Albert Szent-Gyorgyi who discovered vitamin C in 1928, who commented "when I was a medical student, iodine in the form of KI was the universal medicine. Nobody knew what it did, but it did something and did something good. We students used to sum up the situation in this little rhyme: If you do not know where, what and why, describe ye then K and I." Abraham has developed Lugol's iodine into a tablet form which is well tolerated. It contains a mixture of 5mg of iodine and 7.5mg of iodide. He recommends a three month loading dose of 4 tablets daily, starting off with 1 tablet a day for a week, then 2 tablets daily for a week, 3 tablets daily for a week and then 4 tablets. Absorption of iodine is enhanced by vitamin C 3 grams daily and this should be taken along with my standard recommendations for micronutrients (namely multivitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and of course vitamin C). After three months the dose should then be reduced to a maintenance dose of 1 tablet daily. The clinical observations Abraham has made as a result of many patients taking this regime are as follows: 1. The excretion of mercury, lead, cadmium, aluminium, fluoride and bromine is hugely increased. 2. There is increased well being and energy levels with lessening brain fog. 3. Patients feel warmer, they seem to need less sleep, their bowel action becomes more regular and their skin complexion improves. 4. Interestingly there is often an increase in body odour for the first two weeks (which probably represents excretion of toxins) and some patients have cloudy urine for several months. This regime strikes me as being eminently sensible and safe. I have ordered the tablets of Iodoral from America and if anybody would like to try this, then please do get in touch..." When the medical Mafia starts removing good websites the "Global Government" is close by. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
